Answer

Please see the graph that shows the lines are parallel and the red line is parallel to the blue line.

Work Step by Step

Through $(3,8)$ and parallel to $y=4x-2$ Parallel lines have the same slope, so $m=4$. $y=mx+b$ $8=4*3+b$ $8=12+b$ $-4=b$ $y=4x-4$ Blue line: $4x-2=y$ Red line: $y=4x-4$
